Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

Americans did what they do better when it comes to car, more is better, this is the case of the highly anticipated Hellcat. Figures start with a crazy 6.2L V8 engine, supercharged, capable of developing a whooping 707HP and a massive 650lb-ft of torque, yes, to the rear wheels.

We are looking at the most powerful saloon car ever built, as a matter of fact, the Hellcat completes the quarter mile in 11 seconds flat on street tyres, sprints for 100km.h in 3.7 seconds and reaches a top speed of 328 km/h (204 mph). It will also go from a standstill to 160 km/h back to zero in under 13 seconds.

Just like it's Coupe brother, the Challenger, the engine is linked to a TorqueFlite heavy duty eight-speed automatic transmission capable of performing 160 millisecond shifts with rev-matching. Braking is provided by the largest brakes ever offered by the Chrysler Group, 15.4 Brembo two-piece rotors at the front with six-piston calipers.

Design wise, the car has kept most panels, the most noticeable difference would be the very aggressive front fascia and a powerdome on the alluminium bonnet.
